I've been a lifelong supporter of my beloved Tottenham Hotspur FC since they beat Chelsea 2-1 in the first all London FA Cup Final at the old Wembley Empire Stadium (as it was back then) in 1967
My two most abiding football memories was attending my ever first home game at White Hart Lane on my own as a 'pie eyed' and star struck 11 year old. And and even more significantly, attending my first ever AWAY match (also on my own) in the old 1st Division as if was then.
The details of which are printed below. I also still have my original match programes from both these games after all these years.
